Identify which prospects have changed roles, moved companies, or shown new buying signals since you last engaged — automatically surface re-engagement opportunities with fresh context. Trigger on: prospect updates, account review, prospect check-in, account status, sales territory review, lead refresh.
Surface old prospects who have undergone material changes — new role, company move, changed title, or company news creating urgency — so you can re-engage with fresh context instead of cold outreach. When Harmony conversation data exists, understand exactly what was discussed before and how to reframe the conversation now that circumstances have changed. Sales teams use this to reactivate sleeping prospects efficiently, avoiding irrelevant follow-ups while focusing on prospects whose situations have evolved in ways that create new opportunity.
When to Use
Territory review — systematically check which old prospects have changed companies or roles
Quarterly account review — identify which stale deals might have new decision-makers
After product launch — check which old prospects might now be a good fit based on new features
Competitive threat spotted — find which prospects are at companies evaluating alternatives and could be re-engaged
Reactivation campaign — build a list of prospects to contact based on material changes in their situation
Instructions
Related Skills
1. Define the prospect pool
Start with what the user needs refreshed:
All prospects in my territory — Everyone in a geographic region or segment
Lost deals from past year — Opportunities that didn't close, might be worth revisiting
Stale leads from campaign — Prospects you reached out to but never converted
Specific prospect list — Hand-picked list of accounts you want to check in on
2. Check for role and company changes
For each prospect, gather:
Current company: Where are they now? (LinkedIn, email domain)
Current role: Promotion, demotion, or lateral move? (LinkedIn)
Tenure in role: New in position (within 6 months) or established?
Company change: Did they leave the company we were targeting? (LinkedIn)
New company size/stage: Moved from startup to enterprise or vice versa?
3. Surface company buying signals
For their current or previous company, identify:
Funding announcement: Series A, B, C, down round, acquisition
Executive changes: New CEO, VP Sales, CFO, CTO hired or departed
Product launches: New product line that creates selling opportunity
Hiring spree: Job postings suggest growth and budget availability
Market events: IPO, acquisition, major partnership, compliance certification
Industry news: Regulation, market consolidation, competitive threat
4. Assess re-engagement opportunity
For each prospect with changes, evaluate:
Opportunity tier: High / Medium / Low
Type of change: Role change, company move, company news, personal seniority increase
New angle: How does their new situation create opportunity?
Champion potential: Is this change making them a better champion for your product?
Timing: How fresh is the change? (Within 2 months = urgent, within 6 months = timely, >1 year = cool)
5. Build the refresh output
Create:
List of all prospects with material changes
Categorized by re-engagement opportunity level
Context for each (what changed, when, why it matters)
[e.g., "Moved to competitor, not opportunity yet"]
[Date]
[Brief list of prospects with changes that don't create immediate opportunity]
Refresh Playbook: By Change Type
Prospect Got Promoted
What it means: New authority, new budget, new mandate
How to re-engage: "Congrats on the promotion to [role]. I imagine you're mapping out priorities for your first 90 days..."
Angle: Help them look good in their first months by solving a known pain point from their previous role
Timing: Within 2–4 weeks of promotion (they're in listening mode)
Prospect Changed Companies
What it means: New company, new systems, new pain points, new opportunities
How to re-engage: "I saw you moved to [new company]. One thing we found valuable at [previous company] was..."
Angle: Your solution already solved a problem at their last company; there may be a similar need here
Timing: Within 1 month of company change (they're ramping and open to learning)
Prospect's Company Got Funding
What it means: Budget is available, growth initiatives are launching, decision velocity increases
How to re-engage: "Saw [company] just raised [round]. That kind of growth usually means new challenges around [problem]. Curious if that's on your roadmap?"
Angle: Growth creates new problems; your solution scales with their expansion
Timing: Within 2 weeks of announcement (momentum is high)
Prospect's Company Hired Key Exec
What it means: New priorities, new strategic direction, new decision-makers
How to re-engage: "Your new [exec title] likely has a mandate to improve [area]. That was a known pain point before. Still a priority?"
Angle: New executive often wants to make a mark; enabling quick wins builds credibility
Timing: Within 1 month of exec hiring (they're setting direction)
Prospect's Company Had Product Launch
What it means: Company is growing, revenue is increasing, operational needs change
How to re-engage: "Great to see the new [product]. That expansion usually means growth in [area where you can help]."
Angle: New product line needs supporting infrastructure; your solution enables scaling
Timing: 4–6 weeks after launch (they've moved past launch week chaos)
Prospect Was a Past Lost Deal
What it means: They said no before; circumstances may have changed
How to re-engage: "It's been [timeframe] since we last talked. Lots has changed on our side. Worth a conversation?"
Angle: You've likely improved product, added features, changed pricing; context is different now
Timing: If they said no due to timing/budget: 6+ months, when situation might have changed. If they said no due to product gap: only re-engage after you've genuinely closed that gap

HIGH-OPPORTUNITY PROSPECTS (Re-engage This Week)
Prospect 1: Alex Rodriguez / CloudScale Inc. → NetCore (Promoted)
Previous situation: Sales Operations Manager at CloudScale (2025); we pitched a sales automation tool, they said "we're not ready yet"
What changed: Promoted to VP Sales Operations at NetCore Inc. (announced March 2026)
Change date: March 2026 (2 weeks ago)
New opportunity: Alex now has authority to make infrastructure decisions. At CloudScale, Alex identified same pain points but CFO blocked spend. At NetCore, Alex is making strategic decisions about sales ops. This is a new champion with budget authority.
Recommended approach: Congratulate on promotion, reference specific pain point Alex mentioned at CloudScale (reps not logging activity), and position as "helping her look good in the first 90 days" at NetCore
Draft message opener: "Alex, congrats on the promotion to VP Sales Operations at NetCore. I remember you mentioning at CloudScale that reps weren't logging activity — curious if that's still a pain point at your new company?"
Data source: LinkedIn (job change announcement)
Prospect 2: Maria Gutierrez / TechVenture → Series C Funding
Previous situation: SVP Sales at TechVenture; we proposed deal, they said "budget frozen until after Series C"
What changed: TechVenture announced $60M Series C funding (March 2026)
Change date: March 2026 (just closed)
New opportunity: Budget is no longer frozen. $60M gives them runway to invest in sales infrastructure. Maria likely has a new mandate to scale the sales team. This is the exact scenario where they said they'd revisit post-funding.
Recommended approach: Acknowledge the funding win, note that budget constraints have probably lifted, and position as "the infrastructure that scales with your growth plan"
Draft message opener: "Saw the Series C close for TechVenture — massive congrats. Now that funding is secured, the infrastructure question probably moved up the priority list. Worth revisiting?"
Data source: Crunchbase (funding announcement)
Prospect 3: James Chen / RetailCorp (New CFO)
Previous situation: VP Finance at RetailCorp; we pitched, said "finance isn't the buyer, sales leader needs to approve this," never got CFO air cover
What changed: New CFO hired (March 2026), previous CFO departed
Change date: March 2026 (1 month ago)
New opportunity: New CFO may have different priorities and a mandate to improve operational efficiency. Previous CFO was blockers. Fresh decision-maker = fresh opportunity. Also, new CFO is building credibility by making strategic decisions; this could be an easy win to show impact.
Recommended approach: Research new CFO's background and priorities, position as helping the finance team demonstrate ROI on sales investments, and offer a non-threatening intro call with new CFO
Draft message opener: "James, I saw your new CFO just came on board. Typically one of their early priorities is improving finance/sales alignment and demonstrating impact on revenue. Would be interesting to chat about how that's shaping up?"

Edge Cases
Prospect is now at a competitor: Flag clearly. Only re-engage if they're at a company that's still a prospect (not a direct competitor of yours). If they're at a competitor, note for future reference (they might move again).
Prospect got demoted or changed to a less relevant role: Mark as deprioritized unless they move again to a relevant role. Don't force engagement if they're less relevant now.
No changes detected but long time since last contact: Flag as "stale but no recent change." Only re-engage if you have new product/positioning to share. Don't re-engage without fresh context.
Multiple prospects at the same company: If company news (funding, acquisition, new product) shows up, mark all of them as high-opportunity. Coordinate a multi-threaded outreach.
Prospect explicitly said "no forever": Don't refresh unless circumstances change materially (company news, role change). Respect past hard NOs unless context shifts.
Past conversation data shows they evaluated and chose competitor: Note this. Don't re-engage unless you've closed the gap that made competitor win. Re-engage only if you can credibly say "we've addressed the gap that mattered."
